Rolling Stones Announce Summer European Tour

In a live cybercast today on the official Rolling Stones' website, Mick Jagger revealed the band's summer tour itinerary. The age-defying rockers hit the road starting June 5th with a stop in Werchter, Belgium, and continue on for 26 more dates across Europe, ending August 21st with a show at the O2 Arena (formerly the Millennium Dome) in London.

As expected, the Stones will visit the Isle of Wight Festival on June 10th—their first British festival appearance in more than 30 years. Less expectedly, they will also play on July 9th in the tiny Balkan nation of Montenegro, which only last year claimed its independence from neighboring Serbia.
